I don't think I know how you get AOC herself to do it. I would not pretend to know her offices or her particular views on this. I do think, though, that You can see different Democrats taking on different kinds of risks. Right now, we're sort of in the age of Gavin Newsom starting a podcast.

I mean, Gavin Newsom is the governor of California, and he's spending some percentage of his time doing a podcast with Charlie Cook and Michael Savage and Steve Bannon. Gavin Newsom realizes that one lane for a Democrat is to be high risk and talking to virtually everybody. I think Pete Buttigieg, in a different way, is somebody who wants to take media risks.

Now, I think he's going to my gut on him is he's going to hold his powder a little bit. So he'll probably want to do the Lex Frubin podcast, assuming he runs in twenty twenty eight in twenty twenty seven. Right. I think a lot of them are trying to figure out what is the lane for right now. And there's a lane for the next two years and there's a lane for the two years after that.

That'd be interesting. I mean, would he do it for four hours? I don't know. The four-hour ask, the three- to four-hour ask, as somebody who also books politicians, is hard. I have trouble.
